Evie Day 138
Good morning, everybody!
I start off with that, but I must confess, I really have no idea how many people read my posts, but if you’re reading this, know that I am grateful for your time and attention.
Today is the first day of a new month, 1 August 2023.
Lots going on this month. We’ll have a string of birthdays towards the end of the month, Dane will return to school for the fall semester, Evie will turn 5 months old, and one of our pooches will perfect the ice pick bark, a bark so high-pitched and screechy that it makes you want to eliminate an eardrum.
Right now several of our canine charges are over by Lisa, begging for some of her breakfast. They don’t bother me as aggressively – they know I don’t share. But my wife has earned quite the reputation in the dog community for dispensing snacks if one sits, gives the lamenting sad dog face, and applies enough agony in the vocalizations.
In that regard, my wife is a soft touch.
There were some women’s world cup matches on very early this morning, and the US women played at 2:00 AM. I set my DVR to record it, but of course, I flipped on the news, and received an update… how about a spoiler alert?
I’m back in my virtual classroom in another hour or so. Starting off the week with a little review/preview and open office hours to talk with our learners about where we’ve been and where we’re going.
In other news, looks like more indictments are coming against the former guy. The news is currently running a story about someone’s mounting legal bills and how money is being shifted between various political action committees to pay for someone’s attorneys.
OK well. It’s Tuesday… focus on the tacos.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
